I was just about to ask you.
(If a person's values are not right, then I really can't say anything …)
It was already very cold in Shanghai in late December. It was said that the north suffered from physical attacks and the south suffered from magical attacks. Qin Sheng, who had been in Shanghai for a few years, was already used to it. Winter always made people feel lonely. The pedestrians on the street all put on down jackets and woolen coats. Compared to summer, this was a season that men hated.
It had been a week since Qin Sheng came back from Nanjing. Recently, everyone was very busy. Chang Baji went out early and came back late every day. Sometimes Qin Sheng came back alone. His body was gradually recovering, so Qin Sheng went to the gym again. He went to the bookstore every two or three days to choose some interesting books. He also found other books by the original owner of the book "The Gains and Losses of China's History of Politics" that he had read last time. There was a book called "Thick Black Theory" that was highly respected in modern times and a book about the red-top businessman, Hu Xueyan. Qin Sheng really wanted to know who the original owner was.
In the afternoon, Qin Sheng was serving in the private room on the second floor. When he came out to get some fruits, Brother Lyu told him that Ms. Cheongsam had come and was waiting for him in the blue private room. Brother Lyu asked Song Siyu to exchange with Qin Sheng, and then Qin Sheng went to find Ms. Cheongsam.
Yu Fengzhi was at the door. She was not surprised when she saw Qin Sheng. It seemed that Miss Xue would ask for Qin Sheng's service every time she came. But today, there was another VVIP member besides Miss Xue, so Ms. An asked Yu Fengzhi to wait here.
Yu Fengzhi said with jealousy, "What's your relationship with Miss Xue? Did Miss Xue recommend you to come to Shangshan Ruoshui? "
"Why do I feel that you are very interested in these things?" Qin Sheng asked.
Yu Fengzhi snorted, "Say it if you want. What are you showing off for?"
Qin Sheng was too lazy to respond to her. He always felt that this woman could not be conquered by ordinary men. Recently, she wanted to ease the relationship with him with a purpose.
He pushed the door open and entered the private room. In addition to Ms. Cheongsam, there was an old man with white hair. The old man looked kind and his eyes were smiling. He was holding an antique cup and talking with confidence. Qin Sheng had seen this old man in the introduction of Shangshan Ruoshui. He seemed to be called He Xilai. This name was quite interesting.
"Miss Xue, Mr. He, how can I help you?" Qin Sheng greeted respectfully. If only Xue Qingyan was here, Qin Sheng would definitely not be so polite. However, there were outsiders here after all.
It had been a long time since Xue Qingyan saw Qin Sheng being so serious. She burst out laughing. Qin Sheng looked puzzled. He rarely saw Xue Qingyan smile so brightly. He had told Xue Qingyan before when he came back from Nanjing. However, Xue Qingyan had been in Hangzhou for the past few days. She just came back today and came to Shangshan Ruoshui.
"Qin Sheng, why are you so cute today?" Xue Qingyan said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. If a woman said a man was cute, their relationship must not be simple.
Qin Sheng murmured, "Miss Xue, what's wrong?"
"Uncle Liu, does my brother look silly?" Xue Qingyan ignored Qin Sheng and said to the old man beside her with a smile.
The silver-haired old man stared at Qin Sheng with a smile. Before Qin Sheng came in, Xue Qingyan had told him that she had a younger brother who worked here.
"Little Qin, there are no outsiders here. Qingyan and I are friends. You can do whatever you want, don't mind me." The old man laughed.
Xue Qingyan then said, "Did you hear what Uncle Liu said? There are no outsiders here, just call me sister."
Qin Sheng finally understood why Xue Qingyan had been smiling so happily just now. He scratched his head and said, "Uncle Liu, I'm sorry for making you laugh."
"Little Qin, sit down and talk. Don't just stand there." The old man waved his hand and Qin Sheng quickly sat down opposite Xue Qingyan.
Xue Qingyan asked casually, "How's your recovery?"
"It's been so long, I'm fine now." Qin Sheng laughed.
Xue Qingyan teased him on purpose, "Really? Then show me a set of Shaolin's 18 Arhat Fists. "
Qin Sheng looked confused and then said weakly, "Sister, for real?"
"I'm just kidding. You're usually so smart, why are you so silly today?" Xue Qingyan covered her mouth and laughed. She found Qin Sheng more and more interesting.
The old man thought for a while and said, "Little Qin, I heard from Qingyan that you know martial arts?"
"Just a little. It's just for self-defense. It's not elegant," Qin Sheng said modestly.
The old man took the initiative and said, "If you're really interested in martial arts, I know a master. He's 70 years old and was a martial arts fanatic when he was young. He trained many talents for the army and now lives in Tianmu Mountain in Hangzhou. If there's a chance, come to Hangzhou and I'll take you to meet him. If he thinks you're good, you can learn from him."
"Thank you, Uncle Liu. If there's a chance, I'll pay you a visit in Hangzhou," Qin Sheng said politely. Ms. Cheongsam had shown her sibling relationship with Qin Sheng on such an occasion. It was obvious that she was helping him. After the incident in Nanjing, Qin Sheng felt that Ms. Cheongsam had taken him seriously.
Xue Qingyan asked meaningfully, "Qin Sheng, you've been in Shangshan Ruoshui for two months. How do you like it here?"
"It's good. I can learn a lot," Qin Sheng said with a smile.
"I had a chat with Old Xu just now and asked about your situation. He said that you're working very hard here, and An Qing spoke very highly of you. The Reception Department is currently planning to add another deputy manager. Do you have any thoughts about it?" Xue Qingyan said with a smile. The former words were true, but the latter words were half-true. This was obviously not Xu Lancheng's intention, but she took the initiative to ask Xu Lancheng. Xu Lancheng said he wanted to ask Jiang Xianbang's opinion, but for Xue Qingyan, Jiang Xianbang would definitely agree.
Qin Sheng was surprised and replied, "Sister, I just came here not long ago. I'm afraid I'm not up to the task. Besides, there are many qualified and capable candidates in the reception department."
"People strive for higher places, water flows to lower places. You are not planning to stay here for the rest of your life. In this way, you can also learn more things. When the time comes, you can leave this place," Xue Qingyan said kindly. Obviously, she had already pointed out a bright future for Qin Sheng.
Qin Sheng was deep in thought.
The old man said calmly, "Qingyan is right. It's good for you to train here. Don't get too involved. Sometimes you can't think too much. I think you're up to the task. I'll talk to Old Xu later."
Since Xue Qingyan and the old man had already said so, Qin Sheng thought about it and agreed with them. Jiang Xianbang had asked him to come to Shangshan Ruoshui first to train him. However, Qin Sheng was worried that if he was promoted to Deputy Manager, the others would complain, especially Brother Lyu, who had the most experience. Qin Sheng was brought up by Brother Lyu and they were so close.
"Sister, I'll listen to you," Qin Sheng nodded.
"That's more like it," Xue Qingyan replied with a smile. She really wanted to train Qin Sheng well. She felt that it was a waste of Qin Sheng's talent to stay in Shangshan Ruoshui. If it wasn't for the fact that she didn't want him to feel uncomfortable, she would have arranged a better position for him.
After chatting with Xue Qingyan and the old man for more than an hour, they still had to attend the banquet. Qin Sheng sent them off. Before he left, Xue Qingyan reminded him that tomorrow was the weekend and he should not forget what he had promised. Only then did Qin Sheng remember that he had to tutor Xue Hao. Xue Hao was getting closer and closer to him. Last night, Xue Hao had sent him a WeChat message asking if there were any such websites. Qin Sheng scolded him harshly.
It was the day shift this week and Chang Baji was nowhere to be found. Qin Sheng did not go home after work but went to Chang Baji's garden bungalow on Middle Huaihai Road. It was Jiang Xianbang's birthday today.
Jiang Xianbang did not have a gathering with his friends and did not invite anyone. It was just Qing 'er and Qin Sheng. Qing' er even cooked for him, so Qin Sheng could only benefit from it.
On the phone, Qin Sheng was troubled about what gift to buy for Jiang Xianbang. Jiang Xianbang did not lack anything, so he did not know what to buy. Luckily, Jiang Xianbang said that he did not want to buy anything and only brought one person. Qin Sheng said bluntly, "I'm having a headache. Since you don't want to buy anything, then I won't buy anything, hahaha." Jiang Xianbang was so angry that he scolded Qin Sheng.
When Qin Sheng arrived at the garden bungalow, Jiang Xianbang was drinking tea and watching TV in the living room. Although Qin Sheng did not buy a gift, he bought some fruits on the way. Otherwise, he would have been embarrassed to come empty-handed.
"Old man, you seem to be having a good time," Qin Sheng joked as he passed the fruits to the butler.
Jiang Xianbang laughed. "It's rare to have such a good time. I have a filial son and daughter, so it would be strange if I didn't enjoy it."
"You're taking advantage of me again. Do you believe that my grandfather will talk to you in your dreams tonight?" Qin Sheng said impatiently. The daughter was naturally Qing 'er. He could not be the son, so Qin Sheng did not want to lose out.
Jiang Xianbang laughed and said, "Don't, I'm really afraid of your grandfather."
"Xu Lancheng called me and said that Xue Qingyan wants you to be the assistant manager of the reception department. He asked me what I think." Qin Sheng was planning to walk around the kitchen to see how the beautiful Qing 'er's cooking was. If she was not good enough, he would order takeout.
Qin Sheng stopped and said, "What do you think?"
"Of course I agree. I even agree if you want to be the general manager. What's a small assistant manager of the reception department? This Xiao Xu is really too much, asking me for this kind of trivial thing," Jiang Xianbang scolded.
Qin Sheng had already thought it through and did not want to be long-winded. He replied, "Of course, who doesn't want to be a leader?"
"I'm just afraid that you're thinking too much. That's more like it. I'll keep the general manager of Shangshan Ruoshui for you. When the time comes, I'll transfer Xu Lancheng to the company," Jiang Xianbang said half-jokingly, but it was also the truth. Xu Lancheng was no longer useful here, but this position would be of great help to Qin Sheng. For example, not long after Qin Sheng came to Shangshan Ruoshui, he had already hooked up with Xue Qingyan. He could even make Xue Qingyan take the initiative to tell Xu Lancheng about this.
So Jiang Xianbang asked, "How did you hook up with Xue Qingyan? She's not simple."
